FIRST DRIVE | Jeep Compass 4Xe vs PHEV – Why an EV is Much Better Off-Road !

I went to Germany to drive the all new Jeep Compass both on and off roadway. Can the Compass measure up to the Jeep Household off-road heritage and can an EV actually be any good when the going gets difficult?

  A rock is far more likely to puncture a petrol tank, causing an explosion, than it is to damage a battery. Off road EVs have very heavily protected battery packs, and they can go through deep water, some up to 800mm.

A very impressive car on that terrain and I do like the interior.

Only fwd phev seems a backward step, I have a 4xe renegade trailhawk, if it had 50 miles ev not 30 it would be perfect. Its the right size for me, I hope the ev version of the renegade is awd.

A proper off road car without that unnecessary noise from a diesel engine, and no smelly exhaust.

Title does make me laugh, all good until the battery runs out, with a ICE car you can just fill it up with a jerry can, with EV good luck!

The 4Xe is a very good looking exterior and interior car especially in that spec. It’s also very impressive off road.
